O'Keeffe Over Rettenmaier

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Marvin Rettenmaier and Stephen O'Keeffe saw a flop of {7-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{J-Hearts} in a raised pot. Rettenmaier was first to act and checked over to O'Keeffe. O'Keeffe fired 3,700 and Rettenamier stuck around.

The turn brought the {K-Hearts} to the felt and Rettenmaier checked for a second time. O'Keeffe followed suit, allowing the board to pair with the {j-Spades} on the river. Both players checked once more and Rettenmaier tabled {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts} for a pair of tens. They were no good, however, as O'Keeffe showed {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} for a higher pocket pair. He took down the pot and brought his stack up to 41,000. Rettenmaier, on the other hand, dropped to about 64,000.

Zahid's Mistake Pays Dividends

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

On the turn of a {5-Spades}{K-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{6-Spades} board David Cabrera bet 1,300 and Andrei Konopelko made the call before Jabran Zahid threw in three 1k chips. He'd thought the bet had been 2,300 and was forced to make a raise to 3,000.

Cabrera thought for about half a minute and then folded but Konopelko made the call. The river was the {4-Clubs} and Konopelko checked, Zahid made a bet of 4,00 and Konopelko made the call.

Zahid showed {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds} and Konopelko flashed {K-Diamonds}{3-Spades}. Zahid immediately declared he'd genuinely made a mistake raising and had made every intention of calling the bet on the turn.

"Worked out ok for you in the end," quipped someone at the table.
